That New Mac Miller Documentary Isn't Happening After All

Once filmmaker C.J. Wallis revealed a plan to prepare a definitive documentary about Mac Miller yesterday, the world grew excited. Wallis was to commemorate the late rapper's life and achievements by interviewing his friend and family member although it looks like that won't happen, at least now. Wallis took to Twitter and revealed that Miller's estate, shortly immediately after his announcement, had halted the movie's production.


Wallis posted four lengthy tweets explaining the scenario and his aspire to respect the family member. Soon after hearing back from the family member, he wrote that he and his team "immediately complied because the last thing we'd want is to negatively impact anyone involved, quite the opposite." He ended with an optimistic hope for its release in the future. "The outpouring of support for the doc and that it was us attempting to prepare one was humbling, and in time perhaps we plan get to be able to see it through. So far, we have hours of incredible music and that's routinely been more than enough."


In February, Cardi B shared her Grammy award for Best Rap Album with Miller. His final album, Swimming, had been nominated against her debut LP, Invasion of Privacy.
